What was NOT mentioned...

...was whether or not Libby endangered national security by revealing her identity.

In other words:

Scooter did not play nice with investigators so he will be spanked and they have no case in terms of 008, aka Valerie Plame Wilson Bond.

You all just kill me with this "its ok for a Republican" but when a Democrat does it, throw the book at him!

You are just making yourself look stupid. Wake up, the guy lied through his teeth, and you know it, and it just KILLS you that it is a Republican. I can't wait till they finish with Rove's investigation, he will probably get even more charges, then you can bash Fitzgerald again and make yourselves feel better.

While it's possible that what you say is the truth (that he lied) he currently has only been indicted and not been convicted or admitted guilt. On the other hand Clinton did admit his guilt. Notice a difference?

I think rack'm was voicing disappointment at the Bush administrations lack of good faith and the pizz poor state of this investigation from the entertainment standpoint.

At this point in Ken Stars case we already had several indictments, plea bargans, contempt citations, a conviction or two, missing documents, Vince Foster, a blow job and a stained dress.

I am disappointed at the Bush/Chenny administration for only giving this a half assed try. You would think they could have done better than 1 indictment on the last day. Maybe some midget porn, a lurid rumor about Condi and Rummy, working a long night together. I mean come on!

Thanks Pete, I am just not wordy enough.

Ahhhh the spin starts here. Where are you getting your information that Fitzgerald is a liberal? The indictment means depositions, witnesses, trial, possibly more perjury charges (republicans have the same occasional mental condition as my 14 year old - selective memory), and possible conviction. The revelation will be the lengths this administration went to in order to sell Iraq. It's not going to be pretty (albeit sadly, sadly amusing). It's not over by a long shot.

No spin from me. I read the indictment and Libby looks dirty. Good on them for calling him to task. Now for a trial and if he is guilty punishment.

It looks to me from the indictment that they indicted him because he lied or attempted to mislead the Grand Jury and the FBI. It seems to me, and I may be mistaken, that the Grand Jury believed that every reporter in DC knew Plame was working for the CIA already so Libby did not "out her" per say because she was effectively outed already. The fool should have just told the truth.
